Simple Soul
A simple soul desires simple things,
health, family, and favor from God.
A simple soul prays a simple prayer,
Thy will be done, with all its might.
A simple soul performs simple acts,
the task at hand, the duty of vocation.
A simple soul offers simple means,
an open mind, a heart to be stirred.
A simple soul follows the simple Way,
with a supple will, upon its knees
waiting to be moved.
A simple soul has a simple design,
thread with thanksgiving,
and patterned with praise,
A simple soul displays a simple trust,
like a child, in the Providence of God.
A simple soul
simply lives its life
simply gives its life
for the glory of God.
